Inventor: HARTKE ANDREAS
IPC: F02D41/38
Filed: 1998-12-29
Abstract: The method involves setting the pressure in the rail (18) depending on the operating states of the engine by specifying the demand pressure. Characteristic fields (10,301,302) are used for the injection pressure base value (FUPSPPLBAS) under load, during engine start-up (FUPSPST) and during idling (FUPSPIS). The output of the load-mode characteristic field is applied to the input of a first differential time element (204), whose time characteristic depends on the engine speed. The output of the first time element, the characteristic fields for the start and idle modes and the output of a characteristic field (402) for setting a base time constant are applied to the input of a second time element (401), whose output delivers the injection pressure desired value (FUPSP) for each engine operating state.

Title: Verfahren und Anordnung zur Positionsbestimmung bei der Röntgenbildgebung
Inventor: SCHMITZ GEORG DR
IPC: A61B34/20
Filed: 1998-01-20
Abstract: Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Positionsbestimmung bei der Röntgenbildgebung sowie eine Anordnung zur Durchführung eines derartigen Verfahrens mit einem Röntgengerät (1), einer Detektoranordnung mit mindestens zwei Detektorelementen (8,9) und mit einer Markeranordnung (10). Die exakte Zuordnung des Röntgenbildes zum abgebildeten Objekt ist vor allem bei der intraoperativen Bildgebung von großer Bedeutung. Dazu ist die genaue Kenntnis der Position und Lage der zum Abbildungssystem gehörigen Komponenten des Röntgengerätes notwendig. Häufig besteht jedoch das Problem, daß die Sichtlinien des Positionsmeßsystems durch Behandlungspersonal oder andere Geräte unterbrochen werden. Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Anordnung ist deshalb vorgesehen, die Detektoranordnung (8,9) am Röntgengerät (1) und die Markeranordnung (10) am Untersuchungsobjekt (6) oder relativ zum Untersuchungsobjekt (6) ortsfest anzuordnen. Weiterhin wird ein geeignetes Verfahren zur Positionsbestimmung bei Röntgenbildgebung mit einer derartigen Anordnung vorgeschlagen. <IMAGE>

Inventor: GARR CHARLES MICHAEL
IPC: B41J2/44
Filed: 1998-05-12
Abstract: An improved printer (10) is provided that predicts how many pages can be printed before the toner or ink cartridge (90) becomes empty, and also predicts how much time remains before this toner or ink cartridge (90) becomes empty. This prediction is based upon the previous printing history of the printer while using this particular toner cartridge (90). After measuring the quantity of toner left in the toner cartridge, the toner measuring device provides a "level change" output signal when the remaining toner passes through a predetermined gradation threshold. As each gradation level transition occurs, the printer (10) calculates a new value for the "pages per gradation" variable, and also calculates the number of pages that have been printed since the latest cartridge was installed in the printer, the number of pages printed since the last level or gradation change, and the number of pages or sheets printed between the last two level changes. The printer (10) also can approximate the amount of toner used in printing a particular page of print media to create a Toner Tally for each printed page, which can be used to judge the amount of toner used for one print job and compare that to the amount of toner used for a second print job.

Abstract: Described is a particular procedure to make structures from longitudinal
helical metal strips, the same are adecuate to conform different objects, such as
plates, planks, sheets, tubes, shafts, etc. and they are porous, flexible, highly
resistant and with great ability to absorb the different applications to which they
may be subjected, i.e. mechanical, caloric, sound, etc. The procedure consists in
stinging the entangled metal strips, each metal strip with its adyacent, until
"layers" are formed, and these, in turn, are entangled to each other until a
structure is formed, which gaps determining the porosity will be at least the same
size than the thickness of the filament constituting the metal strip. The layers may
be formed by metal strips made of any type of material (metallic, synthetic, etc.)
and they may be combined among them. The invention describes a mathematical
calculation that allows to determine the behaviour of the structure obtained once
the material and thickness , as well as the diameter and the pitch of the respective
helical coils, is determined.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé de réduction d'une distorsion ou d'un bruit détecté dans des signaux, dû(e) à une distorsion intermodulaire dans des ensembles d'émission qui émettent simultanément plusieurs canaux à l'aide du même élément ou composant. On réduit une distorsion ou un bruit en sélectionnant des fréquences de porteuse de sorte que celles-ci ne sont pas toutes espacées par la même fréquence donnée. Selon un mode de réalisation, un premier groupe de canaux présente un espacement et un groupe adjacent présente le même espacement, avec un décalage des fréquences de porteuse, établi à partir d'un multiple de l'espacement utilisé dans le premier groupe. Selon un autre mode de réalisation, les fréquences de porteuse de canaux adjacents sont inégalement espacées. Deux blocs adjacents de canaux peuvent utiliser des modèles d'espacement inégal identiques ou différents.

IPC: H04L27/02

Abstract: This invention concerns a method of increasing coding levels. In this method, an increase in levels is achieved with multi-level coding, where uninterrupted periodic sequences such as an alternating current of the same frequency and phase relation are provided as the code elements, and where the code elements are flagged with respect to one another by changes in amplitude; this increase in levels is achieved by the fact that the next code element begins or ends either with a positive or negative half-period, so that two levels can be marked with one code element. This has the effect, for example, that six levels are obtained instead of three. In numbers, this means that with three levels and two, three, four and five places there are 9, 27, 81 and 243 combinations, and with six levels and two, three four and five places there are 36, 216, 1296 and 7776 combinations.

Title: Locomotive to ECP brake conversion system
Inventor: KULL ROBERT C
IPC: B60T17/22
Filed: 1999-12-14
Abstract: A conversion system enables a locomotive equipped with a
conventional pneumatic brake control system to control braking
on a train whose railcars each have electrically controlled
pneumatic (ECP) brake equipment. The conversion system includes
a power conversion mechanism, a signal conversion mechanism and
two pressure reduction circuits. The power conversion mechanism
converts battery voltage received from a power trainline of the
locomotive to a predetermined nominal voltage. Made available
to an ECP trainline that runs along the railcars, the
predetermined nominal voltage is used to power the ECP brake
equipment on each railcar in the train. The signal conversion
mechanism converts the pneumatic brake commands carried in the
brake pipe of the locomotive into electrical brake commands
corresponding thereto. Transmitted along the ECP trainline, the
electrical brake commands control the ECP brake equipment on
each railcar and the braking effort deliverable thereby. Part
of the signal conversion mechanism, the first pressure reduction
circuit is used to reduce the railcar brake pipe pressure to an
emergency level when the brake pipe in the locomotive carries a
pneumatic emergency brake command. The first pressure reduction
circuit then pneumatically commands the ECP brake equipment to
make an emergency brake application. The second pressure
reduction circuit assures that the railcar brake pipe pressure
reduces to the emergency level when the locomotive brake pipe
pressure drops below a prespecified level.
